Just imagine yourself as A FARMER in a Telangana village having a cultivable land, a bore well(s) with decent enough water to irrigate, family labour (or) afford to hire labour, got enough money (or) loan to buy seeds, prepare land for planting/sowing seeds, buy fertilizers, etc. and confident that you can make decent enough profit, if you get at least an average harvest.
You might be wondering, then what's the problem and why are you (the FARMER) not getting any income out of the all above mentioned resources & capabilities of your own?
Problem is not with you (the FARMER) or your land or your bore well or your labour! PROBLEM is with ELECTRICITY - NOT GETTING SUFFICIENT ELECTRIC POWER SUPPLY TO PUMP WATER FROM THE BORE WELL to irrigate the crop/land to get a good harvest. Isn't it something equal to denial of your right to livelihood? Isn't it the incapability of your government to provide you with a basic need - Electricity?
The only problem you (or) our imaginary Farmer, for that matter most of our Telangana farmers, got is with INSUFFICIENT ELECTRICITY SUPPLY!
In present/modern agriculture electricity is a very very important resource, especially in Agro-Climatic Zones like Telangana!!
Hence, We need Nuclear Fuel/Energy to produce enough Electricity to meet the demand of our Agriculture & Farming Community besides supplying to MNC companies. Otherwise, we will be seeing more farmers committing suicides, abandoning agriculture, and deserting the villages.
Why are the political parties stopping the government to build its electric power generation capabilities? It's unfortunate that our responsible political parties in India are involving in IRRESPONSIBLE acts like opposing the Nuclear Deal in toto. It's like playing dirty politics wasting a golden opportunity to revive/protect a major livelihood source (Agriculture) of Rural India. Opposition Political Parties are ignorant of lakhs of farmer suicides (or) trying to turn a blind-eye on Agriculture & Farming Electricity needs, which can only be met through adoption of Nuclear Technology & Nuclear Fuel.
Let us pray & hope for the best for India and Telangana Farming Community!

Jeevananda reddy garu,
What Sridhar reddy said is absolutely right. Telangana lands are gold mines. You can use it for any kind of agriculture. 30% of indias seeds are produced in Telangana becuase of the suitability of the weather. With no natuaral calamities and more rain fall compared to other regions Telangana with modern techniques telangana can be the annapurna of India.I have heard many times from Telangana farmers that they are ready to pay any price for quality power. In telangana power is essential for agriculture. Farmers would stop farming if there is no gurantee for power.
In addtion to farming most of the telangana projects use lifts. They need thousands of megawatts to work. There are many lifts in telangana which are not operational because of lack of power.
Power is essential for a growing country like india. Where are you going to supply the power for the millions of TVs, Refregirtors, ACs being slod every year. Look at the growth curve of the sales of these kinds of products for the last 10 years. You can also guestimate how much more you would need for the next 10 years.
Nuclear energy man not solve the whole problem but it is definitely part of the solution.
At the same time we will get access to all the latest technology used for nuclear saftey.
